Request for Proposals - Evaluation of UNESCO’s Latin American Laboratory for Assessment of the Quality of Education (LLECE

August 26, 2019

For the past 25 years, UNESCO’s Latin American Laboratory for Assessment of the Quality of Education (Laboratorio or LLECE) has been coordinating large-scale student assessment covering the majority of the countries of Latin America. The Laboratorio was last evaluated in 2009.

This edition will examine the intractable issues that evaluators, and users of evaluations, struggle with and how these issues can be addressed.

Based on your experience either as an evaluator trying to assess the cause-and-effect relationships between development interventions and their outcomes; or a user of evaluations, expecting an evaluation to tell you whether an intervention achieved its objectives, whether the intended outcomes were realized and why (or why not), what are some of the intractable issues that you struggle with? How can these issues be addressed?
